Announcers Jordan Rodgers & Mike Monaco during the Pitt-VA Tech game:
Rodgers:
“Both of these teams had a case to be ranked in the Top 25 already this week, the winner absolutely will be.”
Monaco:
“How about some respect for the ACC. There were a couple of AP poll voters who didn’t have *Miami* in their Top 25.”
If you had told me when I was in high school in the 1990s that someday the lead singer of Jars of Clay would say “I’m no longer sure who God is” and the lead singer of Smashing Pumpkins would say “Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior” I would have spit out my Slim Fast and stained my flannel shirt
Darian Mensah tonight before being pulled in the 3rd quarter against Central Michigan:
23-for-27, 338 yards, 3 TDs
He's the first FBS passer in the last 30 years to have more touchdown passes (14) than incompletions (12) through his first four games, per @CBSSports research.
@AtlantaCanes I have 2 Clemson tickets we got from the Hurricane club for sale. Paid $140 each but negotiable. They are upper deck but the Miami section. If you know anyone looking for tix, send them my way!
@Delta Please give Steven and crew at A14 in Boston extra kudos and my huge thanks. I somehow walked off 1293 from Atlanta today without my purse and they managed to page me back before I hit baggage claim.
"Thornton, a very physical, violent Boston College transfer" is an unusual description of a Miami player by the broadcast crew on a play where Wake got flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct.
The University of Miami strongly supports meaningful national reform that brings greater stability, fairness, and clarity to college athletics. We are especially grateful to Senators Ashley Moody and Rick Scott for their leadership, engagement, and willingness to stand up for Florida’s universities as the Protect College Sports Act moves forward.
Their work to address the bill’s conference realignment provisions is critically important to ensuring that Florida institutions retain the flexibility and opportunity to compete at the highest level in a rapidly evolving collegiate athletics landscape.
We deeply appreciate their advocacy on behalf of our universities and our student-athletes, and their commitment to getting this important legislation right.
